Assalamu alaikum!

Can someone offer me some kind gentle advise on how you decided and stuck to know what you were going to become and study for higher education in college or something.... ?

I'm really rather confused, and it's getting me frustrated. I don't know what I want to do!! :(

That and how did you know the college you were applying for was the one, and also, what happens if I'm too stoopid, and no college wants me and.... :(

I've kinda like got ideas on what colleges I could go to, but then what if they don't have courses for what I want to do? Even though I don't know yet.

So, yeah, what did you pick, how did you pick, and can you change your mind even if you're half way through it?

:D Jazakallah in advance.

you apply for diff. colleges....you can apply for howeva many u want.

none of them will reject as long as you get the right grades they will let you do what you want.
even if you dont get the grades theyll still most probly let you in except you will have to do some rubbish course. like BTEC or something.

depending what you wanna do in uni you just pick the correct subjects.
for eg you wana do medicine or dentristry or something then do chemistry and biology at college.

and yeah when u start college and you decide the subjects your doing aint the right ones then just let them know a.s.a.p and they let u change subjects

I wanted to do Physchology, Sociology, Biology, and Art.... Buuut.... lol. If I were to become a Physchiatrist, well, my sis in law said that I may have to make unislamic decisions to help my patients especially if they were of differnet cultures and differnet religions. So, that's a no no then.

That's just it, I had my heart set on that, but I figure it ain't gonna happen, so I'm stuck....

How would you have to make unislamic decissions if you were to become a psychiatrist?

Psychiatrists help people with mental health issues by prescribing drugs or therapy so theres nothing unislamic about that is there?

Say for example an Atheist comes to me, and I have to help them, however their problem is about Adultery or any other unislamic stuff like that... - How will I answer that ? My views are obvious - It's wrong. I can't say that to my patient, though, can I?

You dont have to promote it (adultery). You can just give him a general answer about the dangers of promiscuity diseases etc etc and precautions what not.

Cant you just go to sixth form at your school? :scratch: Saves all the personal statement/applying to 10 colleges hassle.

And whatever you wanna do, you should pick fairly general subjects. A *LOT* if not most technical/science-type subjects at university all want Maths A level...so even if you're not good at it, you should definitely do maths. (even a C in maths is very hard and very good ;))

If you pick fairly broad subjects, you can always change your mind halfway through at university...especially if they're HARD subjects e.g. physics, further maths. if they are universities recognise you as proper clever and let you do what you want :p

BTW im jus regurgitatin what my teachers tell me :p im still first year a level (but in year 11) :)

Yeah it was the same with me...english lit weaker than english lang. Dont worry, if you enjoy it then maybe you should consider continuing it to A level?

I was on a "special" (imho bit stupid) program so i skipped year 9, and did my gcses across year 9 and 10. Im in year 11 now but doing first year of a levels...but i didnt get to choose them, the "special" program chose them for me :rolleyes:

Im doing combined science, english, maths, and ict (basically core)

Next year ima drop english and science, pick up further maths and physics insha'Allah :up:

In a way the broad core subjects are good cos it means when going to university, i have a broad range at a higher level so insha'Allah if i change my mind should be fine :D (either computer science or physics insha'Allah...family have "decreed" I do medicine, accounting, or law :rolleyes: :rolleyes: )

Seriously, you should start revising for your mocks and do it PROPERLY...like, 5 hours a day or more. You cover most of the stuff durin the revision for the mocks...revision for the real thing is usually just "fine tunin" youre memory if you know what I mean.

lol dont worry i never consistently managed to revise that much...

I kept a log of how much time i spent revising each day *checks it* for the mocks it was usually 2.5-3 hours a day, with a few days of 5 hours. For the real thing, 2-3 hours.

I wish id done more revision for the mocks (5 hours a day would be good :D)...it really eases up the revision for the real exam, and lets you concentrate on the subjects that NEED revision.

I have a rubbish attention span though. I thought girls found it easier to revise/maintain attention :scratch: Even if you think you're not very clever (you are) just make up for 'it' by revising that much more. Even if you dont understand something (which wont happen at gcse) as long as you remember the facts you'll be fine ;)

So thats 4 A levels and 2/3 AS levels insha'Allah.

lol i dont wanna hi jack the thread...

OK, basically, this year (yr 11) im doing 4 a levels. Next year, ill drop 2, and pick up 2 so I will have 2 ASs. Ill do year 12 so at the end of yr 12 I will have 4ASs and 2 A2s insha'Allah. Then I will finish those 2 ASs to make them A2s, and pick up one more AS if I feel like it.

So thats 4 A levels and 2/3 AS levels insha'Allah.

Nothing special. I know of some girl who done 7 A levels :rubeyes:

lol dont worry i never consistently managed to revise that much...

I kept a log of how much time i spent revising each day *checks it* for the mocks it was usually 2.5-3 hours a day, with a few days of 5 hours. For the real thing, 2-3 hours.

I wish id done more revision for the mocks (5 hours a day would be good :D)...it really eases up the revision for the real exam, and lets you concentrate on the subjects that NEED revision.

I have a rubbish attention span though. I thought girls found it easier to revise/maintain attention :scratch: Even if you think you're not very clever (you are) just make up for 'it' by revising that much more. Even if you dont understand something (which wont happen at gcse) as long as you remember the facts you'll be fine ;)

Trust me, it's hard for me to concentrate.... :( :p I revise 3-4hours a day. :p Well somming like that, maybe less... lol. :p :p

hehe...thats why revisin for mocks comes in so useful. If you revise for your mocks hard, and then dont do much revising for a month or more, it sinks into your long term memory which means you only briefly need to look over stuff before each exam to spark it off/bring it all back :)

Yeah, your fancy words.. I didn't understand one bit of it. But don't try and explain, you'll need to do more explainin' for me than you did for Pagal :p :p :p

Ahhh... that's smart, I gerrit. :) I'm just stressed over what I wanna do! lol.

It's really frustrating.... lol. Lucky, someone chose your subjects for you... I know I'm definately doing my English now though.... lol.

And picking colleges are scary... Some of these, well the ones I've looked at are scary.... And I wanna go to an All girls one too... I don't want to stinky boys there. :p

lol dont worry i wont try n explain :p

Well if you are doing 3 A levels, thats 1 down 2 to go!

A levels are 2 years...so you should jus pick some subjects you enjoy/that will come in useful for all or most university courses, and do them. Across the 2 years or at the end you may figure out/realise what it is you really wanna do :)

If its THAT major a decision, you could try istikhara :p

And i dunno where you live/about the colleges where you live so cant comment...all i know is ones around here are :vomit: :torture: 6th form is the best :D

lol and dont worry about boys smellin, when you get to 6th form/college everyone puts on so much perfume/aftershave that you can tell which rooms they've been in from the smell :rolleyes:

I think I'm gonna be doing 4. :p So people keep saying, but it's hard for me to decide, okay. :p :p

:rotfl: I may even try Istikhara! :p

Is it so? Well the 6th forms here stink. :p :p


Our class are already cautious. :p We use lots of perfume but that's juss it, some boys use far too much cologne, and they stiiink. :p Besides, my parents would be more comfortable if i went to an all girls school/college. :)

lol ok 1 down 3 to go then. more the the better...a broader range males you more appealing to universities :)

lol cautious? :p i dont bother with aftershave/perfume...jus deoderant :) guess its to do with intentions (if the intention is to attract opposite sex :asta: )

Yeah I agree with being more comfortable going to segregated school/college :up: (although that goes out the window at university :p)

So english is one...

what other subjects did you say you enjoyed? :)

Biology and maths was it...?

I really recommend you do maths, even if you dont like it that much...maths is a very hard subject at A level and it makes you look very clever to universities ;) (well, it SHOWS you're really clever to universities)

Yeah, I guess... Still you're more mature then anyway. :p :p

I'm definately not doing maths, I get stinky marks, although I enjoy it, it depends, if I get good marks in my mocks I may take it up as a subject. but I dunno... Imma do biology too.. I enjoy biology. :D And I looove Art. lol. So that's three. :D

yeah, but if you do maths, and fail, you're considered a dumbo. :p

OK, english, biology and art (i HATE art...they make you do :asta: things...)

I guess you can find out from what you get on your mocks...

You cant "fail" an A level unless you get like a U :p A D in A level maths is still respectable ;)

And universities wont consider you dumb for doing "badly" in maths :p They'll be impressed about you doing biology and art though (apparently they like multi-talented broad people ;) *edit* broad as in broad minded, not fat! :p)

That's just it, I had my heart set on that, but I figure it ain't gonna happen, so I'm stuck....

Go to one with a good reputation n good pass rate, where the main subjects r in A-level not GNVQs ect :S

Hmm, have u got any idea of what u want to do in Uni?
Biology seems cool, one of my friends did chemisrty n said it was hard.

That's just it I don't know what I want to do, it's so hard picking what I'm good at - If I'm good at anything at this precise moment in time.

Just look at the prospectuses for diff colleges and look at what subjects and courses they offer.

The college you want to go to should accept you, when you start applying to universities it gets harder!

What subjects do you enjoy at school?
What A-Level/ other course subjects interest you?
